Ekta Shakti

Ekta Shakti

Ekta Shakti (United Force) is a regional political party in Haryana, India, founded in 2004. The party president is Virender Verma, a former government employee. Verma is the son of Shiv Ram Verma, who was a member of the erstwhile Bharatiya Jana Sangh. Verma bases his political movement amongst a people called Ror in the Indian caste system. Verma claims that the Rors are related to the Marathas, and using this Maratha identity he was initially able to win some support from the community. Verma builds his political discourse on the accusation that northern Haryana has been discriminated against by politicians from western Haryana.

Verma was accused of having organized party activities whilst still in government service (which is illegal).

In the 2004 Lok Sabha elections the party fielded three candidates from northern Haryana. They got 13 022, 82 430 and 31 202 votes.
